Kingsley Costain brings scoring punch and disruptive guard play to Pepperdine
Costain profiles as a compact, offense-tilting guard whose value comes from shot-making, quick hands, and steady secondary playmaking; in ESPN’s season snapshot he averaged 8.3 points, 1.7 assists, and 1.4 rebounds, and game logs show he can pop for efficient high-volume scoring and multiple steals in a single night. His differentiators are toughness and poise for his size, plus the ability to bend defenses with perimeter shooting and opportunistic defense. If you want a guard who can change tempo and create pressure without needing the ball every possession, he’s a fit.
